| 1164 S/W Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}..from Bkl. Bkl.12/12.4.39 SECRET We are in the process of making a rough mock-up of the new Bentley catalogue, and I am wondering whether you could let me have a specification for inclusion therein of the B.5 series. You might also like to make some suggestions as to which points of the chassis you think worthy of being illustrated. - PISTON - FRONT SUSPENSION - GEARBOX - DUPLEX PROP SHAFT FRAME BRAKE DRUMS Bkl. - ENGINE MOUNTING JACKING SYSTEM | ||
